Stop whining. He acted fine

For the future of the CSM, please consider his resigniation.

Are you kidding me? Encouraging other players to partake in a possible suicide of a mentally unstable person is "acting fine?"

Its a joke. I know. But it has gone too far.

Anybody who threatens to commit suicide over a video game deserves to be mocked.

it doesn't matter if I am an alt or CEO of Pendamic Legion. I am expressing my concern as a valid subscriber of this game. I pay plex for this game. You pay plex for this game. An alt or a nobody i may be, but i am entitled with same right as others.

You are a silly excuse for a human being. Such behaviour is unacceptable. It represents CCP, the community, and not all agree with this crap.

Oh my humble apologies for tarnishing your great reputation, Mittani the Great. I just hope that you think twice before asking thousands of other players to partake in an act to provoke a mentally unstable person to commit suicide.

And we're entitled to use our payment to mock you for being dumb.

It's not immoral to mock stupid people.

It's not quite immoral, but it is stooping quite low.

LOL i HEARD MITTENS GOT A bj FROM mONICA LEWENSKI TOO
Impeach his arse !!!!
Isn't it a requiement of CSM to live in a basement & be a neckbeard? Sorry Mittens you don't qualify as being enough of a geek :)

Hi hello, welcome to EVE-Online, the internet spaceship sandbox MMORPG. You seem to be new here.

Anyone know what link the OP is on about?

Yes, but it'd probably bore the hell out of you to read it. You'll find a thread by Blawrf McTaggart over on another forum (that isn't allowed to be mentioned here) which covers the topic.

Is it ok that because he's the head of CSM, that he can do whatever he wants?

What's really low is pretending to be suicidal to garner sympathy in a video game.

You see? this is always a joke for you. We are not playing a "like" contest here, but to question the Mittani's ability to lead CSM in a most respectable manner.

Are you absolutely sure the person is just pretending? Maybe they are, but it is really not worth the chance; even a 1% increase in the chance that someone actually kills himself is not worth scoring PR points my mocking him. There are plenty of other targets, why not make fun of Rick Santorum or something?

This is sweet.


When can we rename this game "4Chan Online with added spaceships"

These r just internet ships.

I want alliance tournament ships from buying plex.

Either way is a win for humanity.

If indeed the person in question was suffering from mental health issues, then the actions you're defending are not even remotely funny.

You do spend a lot of time defending the Mittani in threads, so much so that it is noticeable. There's no law against defending the Mittani of course, but I just wonder if he gives you a bonus.

The more replys I see from the Mittani the more I tend to think he's not a person of good character.

I heard he is a lawyer.

There's good and bad lawyers both in attitude and/or what they know.

[If I stole a bunch of **** from someone ingame and they kill themselves as a result of my action, it's not my damn problem. They make the choices themselves, I in no way am responsible for their actions.

You've chosen a poor example. In your example above, you are just playing the game and therefore there is nothing you could have done other than not play the game.

I don't care. What part of that do you not get? My moral code is far different from your moral code. You are not allowed to define what my moral code is and that's a fact of life. Morality has always been subjective to interpretation and how we define things to be good and bad on a case by case basis. For me, if my actions caused another person to threaten to kill themselves, why am I responsible? They make the choices themselves and I will never ever care. It has nothing to do with being a sociopath. It has to do with poor decisions that people make every day.

"I'm going to kill myself."
"Okay. And?"

From what you've written, I take it Karadion is probably an alt of the Mittani?

If your actions goaded someone into doing something then you are at least partially responsible for the outcome. It's not just about someone making poor decisions some people can be influenced by others and in the case of people with mental health issues they're even more vulnerable.

I did not pick the outcome or their threat therefore I am not responsible. These people make those choices out of their own doing. Say the bank does a foreclosure on your house and you threaten to kill yourself because you failed to pay your mortgage, why is it the bank's fault? Are you saying that the bank should just back off and let the person keep his home because his life is a good bargaining chip against anyone? "Sorry, Todd. I'm leaving you." "You turbonigger *****, I'm going to kill myself if you leave". My friend had her boyfriend did that to her and I told her to leave anyways. She's not responsible no differently than I am responsible for some douchebag that threatens to kill themselves because I scammed them out of their possessions.

And yes, you have discovered who I really am. An alt of The Mittani.

I would like to call for the resignation of GÇ£The MittaniGÇ¥ in regards to his complete misconduct during the Fanfest 2012 Alliance Panel. Per CSM Representative Conduct article of the Council of Stellar Management, all active CSMs are bound to abide by EULA and TOS and are subject to immediate dismissal and permanent exclusion regardless of infraction. As the representative of the best of the EVE players, more stringent stance is given as they are GÇ£expected to uphold the social contract that all society members are held accountable to, but should also set a behavior standard for everyone else to follow.GÇ¥

For those who are unfamiliar with The MittaniGÇÖs misconduct, please refer to the link where he knowingly encouraged thousands of potential Fanfest viewers to send mails to an EVE player who has exhibited a history of mental instability, to provoke him to commit suicide.

CSMs are elected to exhibit the best of their behaviors, may it be in drinking, partying, or playing, EVE, but knowingly encouraging other players to take part in a possible suicide of a player in front of thousands of EVE and non-EVE audiences crosses boundaries.

When asked to answer for his misconduct, he only gave a nonchalant answer. He should have been begging on his knees, apologizing for his childish behavior. If a no-name player like me incites thousands of EVE Online players to partake in an act to provoke a mentally unstable person to commit suicide, I would be banned by CCP. By the tone of his postings, he is completely unapologetic of his misconduct. Is it ok that because he's the head of CSM, that he can do whatever he wants?

For the future of the CSM, please consider the dismissal of The Mittani from CSM.

lol didn't realize so many carebears existed

I can't wait when CCP will have a new system in place that'll prevent GSF from having all their players and alts vote for mittens...

Good luck with that.

For you, I am going to join GoonWaffe under the guise of a completely new character, climb my way to the top and usurp you. Seeya in a few years!

"I'm going to kill myself."
"Okay. And?"

you know that you are only making yourself look stupid here the further this goes. but wishing harm on another human being is just wrong. moral fiber is something insubstantial but how we are raised in respecting one another but it comes down to this is a game. Mittens is a CSM and has violated several rules that can get him removed as a CSM.

Being a lawyer he should have realized the implications of what would happen before he opened moth and shoved his **** stained foot in/ and the Goons show their support for mittens it only truely shows the people who you truely are.

Karma comes an goes good an bad all will get their just rewards in the end

It's to each own person to decide how they will proceed from that point on and if they decide that suicide becomes a bargaining chip, they are mentallyfucked in the head and it's not my fault at all. Suicide is not and should never be a bargaining chip to force people to go their way.

This.

"Zomg I'll kill myself", is not an argument to be taken seriously. To allow threats of such action to negatively impact gameplay, and for such threats to be protected and legitimized by CCP, is simply wrong. And, quite frankly, it is demeaning and belittling to those genuinely suffering from depression.

Threatening to kill yourself is not a bargaining chip to be used to stop people pestering you in an online game, it is not our responsibility to investigate the validity or seriousness of his threats of self harm and it is certainly not CCP's place to protect him from us.

Quite simply I'm glad CCP haven't had a knee jerk reaction to this, as many other games publishers would have.

He should have been begging on his knees...

It's not the banks fault and in a lot of cases it may not be the person who pays the mortgage's fault either. Circumstances maybe preventing them from being able to pay. Banks do try to help if they can (how far depends on the bank and country), but banks have to take a tough line in the end because if they didn't people would scam them. But I'd hope that if they suspected someone was at real risk of harming themselves they would notify the right authority (not all countries may have a system for dealing with this, that I can't say).

Emotional blackmail never works in the long run and your advice might have been correct depending on the circumstances. But if you really think that your partner would harm themselves then it would be wise to get someone they know well to talk to them (might help put things into perspective) if you're not getting through to them.

You can influence the outcome of a threat and if you do that you're partially responsible.


If you're playing in-game using game mechanics (scamming is allowed) then you can't be held responsible. However, your actions after the scam could be viewed differently depending on what they were.

He gives a f... about other players opinion in this mabe for sure.

Only way is to eat away at his voter base and that ain't going to happen as these Goons buggers have been around for a long time and adapted pretty well from their early days.
Anyway Ive leanr't dont fight go with it, its completly out of your control unless you manage to get a 15000 fleet together to take out all of goons and test, Would take years anyway and by the time you win the game will be well and truly on its last legs

Self-interest takes priority over other people.

"CSM Representative Conduct

Any behavior or actions considered being a material breach of the EULA or TOS by a CSM representative is grounds for immediate dismissal and permanent exclusion from all pending and future participation in the council. There are no exceptions, regardless of the infraction. Representatives are not only expected to uphold the social contract that all society members are held accountable to, but should also set a behavior standard for everyone else to follow."

And you are the chair of the CSM

The OP has some very legit points.

Since that awful alliance panel I really respected The Mittani. I even had some respect for the Test Alliance people. But that was completly destroyed by that nonsense. Sorry Mittani, you seemed to be a very good CSM candidate so far, but you crossed a line here.

@Ladie Harlot: Since when is Goonswarm the "Third Reich"? I think you are clearly crossing a line here. I'm fine with what you do ingame and with many of your stupid mockings. But you are going way to far now with your comments.


Thankfully the chairman position doesn't mean much and there are over all much more respectable and sane CSM delegates left who can keep The Mittani in check.

If I'm right then we all have a good time mocking a stupid person. If I'm wrong then he removes himself from the gene pool.

Either way is a win for humanity.

Its a joke. I know. But it has gone too far.

The Mittani has built himself a brand (same as any other celebrity figure), his is that of a brash, offensive super douche but it gets attention inside and outside of eve.

So what more did you expect?

Personally, I see stuff like this and just think "I see what you did there".

God I hate being in a marketing company some times :P

Anyway,
If someone can be pushed to suicide by means of mails from the fanbase of a computer game, maybe humanity would be better off without them.
Not saying I think that, just posing it as a point for debate.

Dear NPC corp alt pubbie,

10,058 goons and their alts don't agree with you.

Why would he care about his reputation among NPC corp alts?

I'd like to chime in on this.

I suffer from clinical depression. It varies in severity based on circumstances and the given day, and will pretty much be with me for the rest of my days. I don't keep it under control by bitching and whining about it online, I do it through a mixture of happy pills, exercise, willpower, a good diet, work and routine. I have to agree with Simi that the casual use of suicide as an attention seeker or threat, especially online, only reinforces the stigma about depression not being a disease but a character "defect". People who do this trivialize what isn't trivial, and he/she deserves the abuse they received.

Ultimately, when I was at my zenith, only I could pull myself out. Only I can beat back what Churchill called "the black dog." I will graciously accept the help of family and friends but in the end it's my responsibility to manage my depression and keep buggering on. What I will not do is attempt to guilt trip others, especially strangers, into feeling sorry for me. That is simply pathetic.

Dear mittani ass kisser fixed it for you

+1 to OP - The worse thing to happen to eve is mittani being chair of CSM. But now i cant take CSM seriously at all after that display from Mittani, I cant help laughing at him. He really is the biggest childish idiot swimming in his own self importance i have ever seen.. Oh well at least eve got alot more amusing..

You realize it wasn't just goons that voted for him, right? Six of those votes are from me, and I know a number of other people in -A-, cascade, nulli etc. that all voted for him.

Say what you like about goons, Mittani's attitude and massive douchebaggery in the face of armies of forum warrioring terribad care bears perfectly represent my views of Eve, and where I would like the game to go in the future.

You do realise the goons players can have other chars in -A- and every other alliance in eve?

Seeing as he'd just heard the bad news that all his powerbloc's moon goo faucets were getting turned off and in the future goonswarm federation is doomed either to a) obscurity or b) becoming the biggest mining alliance in eve. I feel the poor chap can be allowed a few moments of (albeit televised) drowning sorrows to wallow in the ironic straits he'd found himself. The "king of space" had gotten roped into reporting to the findings of the people's revolutionary committe and needing to put a massive spin on last years hisec ice interdictors all needing to train barges on their 2nd accounts and become targets for roving gangs in nullsec.

You have to laugh.

The presentation could have been a lot funnier.
The reactions on the forums afterwards couldn't.

Obvious for anyone with half a brain ( it is obvious now goons dont belong to this group ) that behind alt hides real person/player that is smart enough to hide his in game identity to protect it self again the most powerful and at the same time emotionally immature person in EVE.

Anybody who threatens to commit suicide over a video game deserves to be mocked

Posting to confirm that everyone I know in every alliance I've ever been in is a goon spy.

FYI, we are the biggest proponent of nerfing tech moons.

All moons really baby. But tbh, I don't care who promotes it just as long as it gets done. Nuking that crap and turning it into a profession where real players sit in belts and take a genuine risk to make the income (while providing targets to roaming gangs) is the best change out of ccp in literally years. My paragraph above can be seen as satire if you like - as long as this still happens I'm cool with it.

I will mention that when this was suggested during CSM1 (by me and others) the then Goonswarm leader Darius Johnson went red in the face and blustered for about 20 minutes about how it would be the doom of eve and the sky would fall and it was completely insane to consider damaging the stablity (passive income aristocracy) of eve in this way.

So if Mittens genuinely is different to Darius in this way then good on him and maybe he was drinking from happiness afterall. I look forward to seeing him in his barge mining tech in nullsec and getting owned by 3 guys in bombers.

... But you're talking about CSM1 which was almost 6 YEARS ago which is irrelevant to today's current state of the game. And we're not going to be mining nor are we depending on tech moons now to provide our isk faucet. We can thank PI and our dedicated ratters for bringing in most of the taxes per month. Unlike Team Tech which they depend badly on tech moons to supply most of their isks (see Tenal, no ratters there or significant activities but all tech moons)

The EULA refers to actions you can take whilst using the software product: Eve Online.

Mittens was having a sit down with friends and interested strangers.

Let all the wimpy thin skinned faggots remove themselves from the gene pool if they so choose to. Who are we to stop them?

For crying out loud. If you really want to put pressure on CCP, then encourage 3rd party news/games sites need to pick up the 'controversy'. If you're in the US, then you can try writing your senator/congressman and see if you can't piggy back on the anti-online-bullying story. Contacting a cyber-bulling organization such as http://www.stopcyberbullying.org might work as well.

The only way you're going to get CCP to act on the supposed cyberbullying is to bully CCP into acting with the threat of bad PR.

Are you kidding me? Encouraging other players to partake in a possible suicide of a mentally unstable person is "acting fine?"

Its a joke. I know. But it has gone too far.

Those laws are aimed at protecting children under age of majority. The Wis is some dumb pubbie who had 22 accounts and he only played Eve Online as an escape because he got divorced (Hint, he probably got divorced for something really obvious). So are you saying we need cyberbullying proposals aimed at protecting manchilds? If the guy offs himself, it's not ourfucking problem. Suicide as a bargaining chip is a dumb dumb dumb tactic.

/facepalm

In case you haven't noticed, the US population and internet blogs/sites in general have been in a "don't let the truth get in the way of a good story" state for quite some time. Blogs and game sites need eyeballs and a scandal, whether true or blown out of proportion, is a great way to get hits/revenue. Most "real world" jerks know this and make damn sure to have a good spin doctor on staff and try to keep their asshattery out of the public eye.

IMHO, Mittanti has potentially screwed the pooch with his off-the-cuff and flip responses to the accusations. If CCP does feel the need to "do something" then Mitt has already painted himself into a corner. A little diplomacy/spin doctoring/maturity would have gone a long way to nipping the whole incident in the bud. Now there's a good chance it could turn into a problem that CCP "must" address with "severe" consequences to show how "concerned" and "serious" they are about < insert social issue here />.

The whole thing is just Stupid. Continuing to pour gas on a flaming ball of Stupid shows an amazing lack of political and diplomatic awareness.

What an idiot; right now they are trying to find this kid in the US for murder after he "drove" his roommate to suicide.

I'm not sure why you are defending a manchild who got divorced over his addiction to Eve Online through the usage of his 22 accounts. That idiot brought up that he might off himself. Mittani never solicited him to do it in the first place. You're acting that using suicide to get their way is a perfectly acceptable method when it's not. ALl I see here are crybabies looking for an excuse, anything, to get the goons banned from the game. I've scammed at least 80 miners during the mining interdiction and at least 4 of them have threatened to kill themselves if I don't give back their isk. It's not my damn problem that they are willing to try and use it as a bargaining chip. If anything, threatening suicide in this game should be an instant permaban.

Inciting thousands of EVE/non-EVE players to send mails to encourage the unfortunate miner's suicidal tendency was not only immature and completely unnecessary, but sick.

"Everyone is out to get us, waaaa"

Guess what jerk. if you leave the basement and look around you will find out the world has suddenly woke up and become intolerante of bullies like yourself and your corp mates.

It is not "just you" or "just Goons", B U L L I E S everywhere are feeling the "love".

The best thing the Mittani could have done, is to rob him of everything and leave him.

Inciting thousands of EVE/non-EVE players to send mails to encourage the unfortunate miner's suicidal tendency was not only immature and completely unnecessary, but sick.

Where did you get your psychology degree?

Where did you get your psychology degree?

Right or wrong Mittani is gone. Its already hitting the media and with cyber bullying being as much of a hot button topic as it is, any company in their right mind would distance themselves as much as possible from something like this. He's gotsta go. All there is to it.

He doesn't need one. Normal, healthy minded human beings with a decent sense of morality are bound to believe that encouraging suicide is the act of a sick individual that needs to be removed from any position of authority, and given councilling.

The whole point is people threatening to kill themselves over inconsequential stuff is ******* ridiculous and deserving of mockery.

Big difference between mocking someone and telling everyone to drive them to suicide.

Besides, if CCP boots Mittani, just how many players are going to leave with him?

Mittani's antics may have been in poor taste (and I voted for him)

but this is shaping up to be a witch hunt, and I would bet that a good deal of those instigating it don't really give a damn about this guy who is threatening suicide as a means of guilt tripping as much as they give a damn about dethroning Mittani and/or getting the goons banned.

Besides, if CCP boots Mittani, just how many players are going to leave with him?

Who says I'm defending him or Mittani?

My point is that Mitt probably crossed the line between in-game and out-of-game douchebaggery, that it wouldn't take much for this to blow up into a scandal that will require CCP's action, and that Mitt, the CSM chair, isn't handling the situation as seriously as he should be.

Anyone whose reputation is built around being a flamboyant douchebag shouldn't enter a sympathy contest with an allegedly depressed suicidal individual, especially if that contest is going to be judged by public opinion. Seriously, if this "scandal" hits the game sites or finds a quasi-mainstream news reporter desperate for a story, Mitt is going find himself censured or worse.


Plus, if the negative publicity keeps up, I'm thinking that the next fanfest's presentations are going to have less drinking and more lawyers.

If CCP does not punish Mittani the Great, EVE Online would be a laughing stock amongst other major game publishers.

Actually if they listen to a bunch of NPC corp alts they would be a laughing stock amongst other major game publishers.

Well, this is a poor choice of words.

Video of the incident is freely available online and was streamed live, so why exactly are you listening and reporting the testimony of one attendee?

Anyone with any sense can see that the statement was made as a joke; you cannot honestly believe he stood in public and advocated forcing someone into suicide, with the expectation that his death would be the result?

Stop whining. He acted fine

Seems to fall under this :

good job internet lawyer. Now here's something you didn't know. The EULA applies to the game, not fanfest.

No, he isn't. Good thing you're not CCP. Nor did Mittani sign the TOS or EULA to attend fanfest.

Its a joke. I know. But it has gone too far.

Suicide is the final resort of a coward. The real damage is done to those who are left behind blaming themselves for not doing "something" different. I have zero sympathy for the type of person who would inflict that on people, or who would threaten to inflict that for the purpose of gaining some sort of extra attention .
If its over a goddamn video game then you shouldn't have been let out of your padded cell to play it in the first place.

good job internet lawyer. Now here's something you didn't know. The EULA applies to the game, not fanfest.

Seriously?....

I personally saw nothing wrong with The Mittani's conduct at CSM. I think people are jealous that such a hated man can have so much fun. Obviously he isn't that bad of a guy if 10K+ people voted for him.

You need to stop being so butthurt about this. It makes you look like an idiot

The man was in Iceland...Getting drunk and talking about internet spaceships. I would be stoked out of my mind If I had to come to terms with those facts for myself. His behavior shouldn't be a discussion as we all display a form of ass-hattery when liquor is involved. Get over it? Yeah so what he is CSM... Id like to think my representatives have a little character.

Getting a mentally unstable person to commit suicide over a game?...... Where do I sign up?!!!?

Such faggotry and weakness should not be allowed to exist in this world. THIS IS SPARTA!!

....or Eve Online. I forget sometimes...

An EULA violation results in dismissal from the CSM.

Do try to keep up.

Well done for quoting rules regarding in game behavior and applying them to a speech made in a conference out of game.

Show us where it says it is limited to in game behavior. You can't, because it doesn't. You utterly fail at reading comprehension.

So goons don't have sympathy? I'll spread the word! :-)

And the EULA applies to in game actions, do try to keep up.

I would expect that if CCP does boot Mittens even though he's not guilty of anything other than making pubbies mad that a lot of people would find another game to call home. If you look at who is complaining about him it's the same small handful of nutters who don't like Goons in general and they have all latched onto this as their latest attempt to accomplish what they are unable to in-game.

1. Does anybody know this person who is supposedly "Suicidal" in real life

2. If you can not answer yes to question one then you can not comment on the mental condition of this person and whether they are genuinely or not.

For all we know this person is not Suicidal in any way shape or form and just over reacted to losing some pixels in a internet space game.

If somebody does know this person in real life and if they are genuinely Suicidal then what the hell are you doing letting somebody with that mind set play a game like Eve to begin with?

Also if it had been any other person who had said this then we wouldn't of had so many people trying to act as a Knight in Shining Armour trying to pretend they give a **** about this person.

The truth of the matter is that most people posting here against the The Mittani (and the goons as a whole) are just people who have been butt hurt in a internet space ship game and are trying to get what ever revenge then can against them because they have no other way.

You don't give a **** about the person in question, you just see this as your only way of trying to get at the goons.

What's worse, a person who openly mocks somebody with Suicidal thoughts because they lost some pixels in a internet space game or the person who pretends he cares about said person and just wants to exact some kind of revenge because they were butt hurt.

The game rules don't make any distinction about where you release peoples real world information. It simply says doing so is actionable.

For example, opening a website to release EVE players real world information is also not allowed.

Are you kidding me? Encouraging other players to partake in a possible suicide of a mentally unstable person is "acting fine?"

Your name suites you well, spiteful and a man of little stature, even a prince amongst such

Genuinely suicidal people don't go around ablooblooblooing about it all the time and using threats to kill themselves to get there own way. That's sulky spoiled children who do that.

Where is this player's "real world" information?

http://www.develop-online.net/news/40316/CCP-investigation-into-suicidal-player-jokes

Wildfire. This things got legs.

CCP in no way condones the harassment of players, especially those who suffer from depression or suicidal thoughts, as we understand the possible consequences of such abhorrent behaviour. While the content of online interactions between players cannot realistically be gated within our game worlds, we do take very seriously accusations of such behaviour between our players.
"Furthermore, we have a suicide hotline protocol which has, in specific cases, made a difference for several unfortunately troubled players.GÇ¥
